Add Comment Question: Three weeks ago I joined a new company (privately owned) after resigned form my full time permanent job. I was terminated from my new job after 2 weeks without any specific reason. I have been told verbally that they let me go and took back my access card. They did not provide me with any computer for the first week of work. They did not given access to any network drive on the second week of work. They really have not given me any chance to prove my skill as an accountant. Anyway, hiring process you have followed is very suspicious, calling at night time for the interview. Owner of the company told me they want to fire existing Accountant. Now they put me in a difficult situation where I quiet from my previous full-time permanent position, as a result, I have no job now. I have not faced this kind of embarrassing situation before. Please advise whether I am entitle to received Pay in lieu of notice (three weeks’ notice period my side) or anything that I can do. Answer: Thank you for contacting our firm.
